Is Your Doodle Ball Obsessed?

The food group got side-tracked discussing their tennis ball obsessed doodles. I have one too! I thought the topic deserved front page coverage. (Maybe the FG'rs can cut and paste their stories here.)

Gavin will sit for literally an hour, in wait for someone to toss a ball to him. Here is part of his collection which has to be kept on the window sill out of his reach:

And here he is with his favorite Kong Squeeky Tennis Ball

You can tell JD has only one thing on his mind. He looks like he is hypnotized in the first picture.

Wow, Karen, that IS incredible focus! There's got to be a way to use his "ball obsession" to your advantage...maybe some household chores? Too bad he can't work the snowblower! LOL

Jersey will pass up food for a tennis ball. We go to a doodle romp, Jasmine plays with all the other dogs, Jersey wants to play ONLY with her ball. She is in heaven if she can find a boy who will play with her all day. She will run until she drops. If her ball goes under a piece of furniture, she will sit there and stare at it, and will try to get you to move the furniture so she can get it. My lab was the same way until she died.
